Chrissie Hynde and her fellow Pretenders set out on paths that brought them together for an amazing, but all too short run, in their original form. We explore those stories, and how Chrissie and drummer Martin Chambers have carried on through the decades. We seem to learn new things about people, who we have followed for years, on a weekly basis. This episode is no exception!

50 years ago Miles Davis released an album that blew the music world away, Bitches Brew. An album as close to perfect as perfect gets. The musicians all made incredible magic in the studio as The Musical Wizard(Genius), Miles Davis, stirred the cauldron. With help from Teo Macero, they made a masterpiece that still may be ahead of it's time decades later. The Imbalanced Brothers give you an overview of the album and how it was made as well as a brief look into the complex genius that was Miles Davis. Bitches Brew may be the first Jazz/Fusion - Jazz/Rock And Roll album recorded. It stands strong today and every music lover should listen to the album at least once all the way through.

You can read more about Bitches Brew in this Jazz Times article about the making of the album.

The years 1978 & 1979 are significant in the Rock And Roll Timeline. The first wave of Punk Rock and Alternative were evolving and growing into so much more. Bands like The Talking Heads and Blondie were the Next Wave before The Next Wave was recognized, and alongside Joe Jackson, Elvis Costello and The Police, these bands brought the Next Wave to the mainstream without compromising their sound. We are taking a look at these two years and their significance to what was happening with the New Wave coming because of bands like The Jam, XTC, Ian Dury & The Blockheads, etc. Post Punk going strong because of bands like Gang Of Four, The X-Ray Spex, Generation X, The Stranglers and more. The growth of the Gothic branch with bands like The Damned, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Cure and Joy Division setting the course for what was ahead. The Second wave of Ska was gaining momentum with the creation of Two-Tone Records and the emergence of The Specials. And, the sound of Hardcore punk because of bands like The Germs were starting to take root in cities across the world. Bands like U2 were emerging from the ashes of punk and creating a fresh new sound. Patti Smith, Kraftwerk and Gary Numan helped facilitate change as well. There was so much happening in Rock And Roll at that time and we give a brief overview of many of the artists who contributed to the changing sounds of music during these two significant years.
